Flot1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable ionotropic glutamate receptor binding activity and protease binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of cell-cell adhesion mediated by cadherin; positive regulation of cellular component organization; and positive regulation of dopaminergic synaptic transmission. Acts upstream of or within axonogenesis and regulation of Rho protein signal transduction. Located in caveola; external side of plasma membrane; and sarcolemma. Part of flotillin complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human FLOT1 (flotillin 1).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Flot1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
